Hey, I've followed the discussion about readahead and it got disabled for Fedora 8 (it wasn't benefiting at all (at least not for me)). Now i wonder if it would be possible to pre cache the "all time using" programs? With "all time using" i mean all the programs that are gonna be started anyway and that are highly likely to be started. for gnome it would be at least the following: - Firefox - gnome-panel - GDM - all the desktop wallpapers (the 24 hours wallpaper animation) - the gnome menu - all the echo icons (small sizes) And probably a few more that i missed. All those applications get started sooner or later anyway so i think it's best to cache as much as possible of them to make them as fast as possible which will also provide a better user experience. Would this be possible to do for F8? Or is this suggestion to late for F8?
